Private investor Caroline Freeman has backed the Yorkshire gifting platform in a deal valuing the business at £200k.

"If anyone is going to make an innovative tech start up business a success, it’s Melissa. She’s the embodiment of a true entrepreneur, full of passion and drive. Kidcrowd is an innovative product which is disrupting a traditional market in a really positive way for the good of our future generations as well as the planet, and I believe will become a serious player within the gifting and ecommerce markets. Not only is Kidcrowd a product that reduces global warming and wastage, it teaches our children about the value of money which should make for a whole new generation of entrepreneurs."

The funding round was backed by the North East Venture Fund and Ingenious.

"The latest government announcement is another big step forward on the 'road to net zero'. However despite the growing popularity of EVs with consumers and fleet users, a lack of charging points continues to deter many from making the switch. This funding will allow us to step up our activity to help build the all-important infrastructure. We hope to make Elmtronics a key player in the roll-out."

Anthemis led the seed round with backing from QED Investors and Seedcamp.

"Weavr’s solution provided us with the platform to accelerate our route to market. We were faced with developing multiple integrations across many third-party stakeholders. Working with Weavr removed the need to carry out a long and complex build and meant we could take advantage of favourable market forces that we may have otherwise missed."

"B2B e-commerce is growing and – in such a dynamic market – automation and efficiency are becoming crucial to the buyer’s journey. The question is how to build layers of trust into this. Detected offers a scalable and pragmatic solution, in a very real and growing area of concern for many businesses. I’m excited to have invested and look forward to supporting Liam and his high-calibre team on this important journey."
— Stephen Garland, former Chief Technology and Product Officer of TrustPilot
